IMPRESSED with sentiments of the deepest gra titude for the assistance already so generously bestowed, the Committee most sincerely lament the necessity which impels them, a seccuul time, to address the Public in behalf of the UNEMPLOYED PRINTERS of the METROPOLIS. The Printing Business, which has for many mouths suffered an almost unexampled depression, still exhibits but little, if any, signs of a favourable cluvqe ; the wretched situation, therefore, of those have for so long a period been deprived of the means of sup- Aims the urgent wants of their families may be easily imagined ; their only support has been derived from the Contributions of the Benevolent, and the Subscriptions of such of their Fellow-work men as remained in partial employment Should this resource fail, which the present exhausted state of the Fund renders more than probable, they can anticipate nothing from the approaching Winter but they extremity of Human Misery. To avert, if poi eihiel this impending fate, the Committee most urgently appeal to the ilumanity of a British Public, trusting, that under such circumstances, further Assistance will not be withheld. In thus urging the claims of their Distressed Brethren, the Com- Mittee cannot deny themselves the gratification of adverting to the important and inestimable benefits which the Printer, by the exer cise of his profession, has conferred upon civilised society;.—when it is considered how much the Art of Printing contributes to the amusement and instruction of mankind,—and that, without the i "# .. oluentelity of The Press, the sublimed efforts of the human ' 4111, * would, in a general sense, have been written in vain—they venture to express a hope that the feeling which such reflections de calculated to excite in the minds of all in the least degree at tached to Literature, will of itself prevent the possibility of an educated and respectable body of men being utterly abandoned to Poverty and desair. The Committee think it their duty to state, that sines the date of their -firs t . Appeal to the Public, near SIX, iffINDRED Indi viduals have , received relief from the Fo:,,d—the sum awarded weekly to each person was pmportkeied to the number of his family. -ranging from 3s. 6d., tit allowance of a single man, to 14 " the highest sum that ;guild be extended to the most severe .and eomplitated case of ':tistress.

TURKEY. LATE MURDERS AT FETCHAM. LEATHERHEAD, WEDNESDAY Er eetee.- - Vesterdsy morning, about eleven o'clock, Hall, the Chief Constable of Union-HallPoliee - oilice,.and Richard Pople , an officer of the same establishment, arrived here in a post-chaise, with an ill-lookilig fellow ; who is said to be a Gipsey, or tramper. Go their arrival at the Rising Sun Tavern, it soon became currently reported that the Gipsey had given important information at Union Hall Otto, relative to the perpetration of this murder, and also concerning other ex tensive robberies, committed by Mary Aires and her para mour, " Cobbler Will." H a ll h a d a n inter View, eltno , t immediately after his arrival, with the . Rev. Mr. Rolland, ' and communicated to the Worthy Magistrate the nature of the information which the man had given. The Rev. Gentleman expressed much pleasure that there was a likelihood of the murderer being discovered, and after ob taining possession of some important facts, relative to a most extensive robbery, in which Mary Ayres and her gang of trampers were concerngd, lie ordered the officers to proceed with the man (to wh o m th e officers had given the .nickname of " Mr. Screw") to the cottage of the late Mr. Akehurst. The place which a short time ago was a pretty retired spot, •eell cultivated, had become a wilderness, the house deserted, and the gardens tram pled to pieces. The Rev. Mr. Rolland, the officers, and the gipsey, went over the house, and having made a search, they returned to Leatherhead. In a short time afterwards, the Rev. Magistrate, the officers, and the I g .psey, proceed ed to Oxshott, the place where Mrs. Ayres, the daughter of old Akehnrst, and her husband reside. The gipsey had given very important information concerning a daring and extensive robbery which was committed about twelve months ago; and that, after the robbery, the property was secreted in the house of old Ayres. The gipsey was left in the post-chaise, about half a mile distant from Ayres's house, while the Rev. Mr. Rolland and the officers pro ceeded thither. On their arrival, Mrs. A. was in a dreadful state of agitation. The Rev. Mr. Rolland strictly interrogated her as to the last time when she saw her daughter Mary. She declared most solemnly that she had never seen her or " Cobbler Will" since the day after Chertsey Fair. Mr. Bolland told her, that she must know that her daughter was at Leatherhead Fair, on the night the murder was committed. She replied, that for aught she knew to the contrary, her daughter, Mary, might has been at Leathe r h ea d F a ir, but she did not see her, nor kad she any idea where her daughter and Cobbler Will were concealed. The Rev. Mr. Rolland expressed himself dis satisfied with her statement, and she was informed that there was evidence against her and her husband, of their having received stolen property of great value, consisting of gold watches, jewellery, linen, Rie., from Cobbler Will and Mary Ayres; and that there was a suspicion that part of the stolen property was then concealed is some part of her dwelling. The house, which is merely a cottage, hav ing only two rooms on the ground floor, by order of the Rev. Mr. Bolland, underwent a strict search. Mrs. Ayres admitted, that while she was a leasing, just at the end of harvest time, Cobbler Will and her daughter came to their house with two asses and a pony, laden, and that Cobbler Will left a sack filled with property of some kind, and also another package; but she did not know their contents, though they remained in the house a fortnight before her daughter and Will fetched them away. She denied that ) she had drunk tea with her daughter and Will recently, on a common ; but she rainitted that she once went to see her daughter when slur was encamped on Esher Com mon. The admissions midi by Mrs. Ayres corroborated the previous statement 'of . ' the Gyrey, and satisfied the Magistrate and officers that his information was de serving of their attention: • Previous to their going to Ox 'thou, a messenger was sent to fetch a female who for some time has cohabited with the gypsey. She was found, we understand, in the vicinity of Tunbridge. During the time that the post-chaise with the gypsey was standing near the Bear public-house, at Oxshott, old Ayres entered the house. On being informed that the officers had gone to search hie house he burst into tears, and exclaimed— " Thi • s s ho c ki ng business will be the death of me." He I expressed the utmost anxiety to know, if " his poor unfor tunate girl," Mary A.yrea had been taken. Colonel Spicer I I entered the house, on being told that old Ayres coal there; end the landlord stated that a few weeks ago, at five o'clock in the morning, Mary Ayres, and Cobbler Will, came to his house, and took a seat on the bench in front a it, and drank some beer. They appeared in a state of starvation; and particnlarly Mary Ayres, whose dress was thin, and very ragged. Will is a short, stout, black-look ing fellow. After they had taken refreshment, they went sway. There is proof .the mast satisfactory, that Mary Ayres, and other Gipseys, were at Leatherhead Fair.— They were seen by several of the inhabitants of Leather head; and yesterday, when her mother was questioned concerning her daughter's keeping out of the way, she ex claimed, " I hope she (lid not do it—it is very suspicious —and it is very hard for a mother to think that her daughter will be hanged." When old Ayres returned home from the public-house, he was examined by the Ma gistrate, and he told the same story as his wife had done, about Mary Ayres and Will bringing a sack and e package of property ; but he denied that he knew that the Nick con tained gold watches, jewellery, &c.; he never had the cu riosity to look at the contents. Nothing was found in Ayres's cottage except a pair of shoes, and. other, trifling property which Mrs. Ayres had brought from her father • cottage after his death and burial, The Gipsey, and the woman he cohabits with, yesterday afternoon underwent a short examination ; and last night they slept at the Rising Sun, and the officers slept in , and adjoining room. The Gipsey appeared to be anxious to state all he knew, while the woman was reserved, and apparently angry at 'I being interrogated. The town was in a state of ferment, and crowd" went to the Rising Sun, mid expressed the ut most anxiety to know if the murderer was taken, DORKING, NV EDINIn tV 3 Irt urns l take r s T m t h e I morning, Risn be foreig eleven o'clock, the i Sun public-house, to the house of Mr. Rolland, the Bar rister, at Fetcharn, and thereishei,lind c ommunication deren was dm underwent an exiuni e n e ati e n: s which lasted upwards of an hour , before Mr. Hankey and the Rev. Mr. Bolland. H to be of the utmost importances oydera were soon after wards given to prepare post chaises, to take him awl the woman who lives with him to narking. Previous to their starting, the woman was examined; and l a ter their exami nation had taken place, the officers kept the gipsey stud his woman separate, to prevent their communicating with each other. An officer rode with .her in a one-horse chaise, and Hall and Pople rode with this gipsey in a post-chaise, At one o'clock this afternoon, they arrivedcd that taking some refreshment, e b . elie A ved com he r munieation was made to th e. Parish Constable, and after proceeded onwards, to a place where the gipsey the parties should be able to effect the capture of the parties, who are strongly suspected o f having committed :the mur ders. The gipsey is a man about five feet six inches in height, is pitted a little with the small-pox, has red whiskers, and red hair, which is very long behind, and is platted and turned up on the top of his head. He is well acquainted with the neighbourhood of Leatherhead, and a pp ea rs to have been for some time a disreputable character. His object, it has been stated, is to get the reward which has been offered for the apprehension of Mary Ayres, and from his perfect .knowledge of h e s, and of her haunts, very san . guine hopes exist that be will soon -cause her tole taste! PROCLAMATION Or TUN WILMS FOILTI HILATIVII TO THj INSTITUTION Or THI CHIEF roucr. " Although this verse of the Koran, ' Obey God—obey the prophet of God, and the depositaries of authority,' makes it a duty of every Aluminum to be subject to the authorities, for some time past, the evil-intentioned, known under the wane of !a in .ontriiv.n6 , l of 41a law, had , withdrawn themselves from obedience ; and this first evil had brought in its train a general disorder, both at Constantinople and in the rest of the empire. As this turbulent militia, in order to give loose to their excesses, pretended to mix in every thing, the condition and even the life of the Milieulinen nation were no longer in safety— no longer enjoyed tranquillity. Every thing, even down to the smallest business, felt the general anarchy. The Rajahs themselves had begun to participate in it, by wearing habits which did not suit their condition. The Sublime Ports, since its origin to the present time, imi tating the example of the Caliph Omerntferank, who had esta blished commiseariee of police charged with authority over va grants, and with the CM of the provisions necessary for the sup port of the people, had provided for the order of the empire by establishing a chief of police (Wiwi agaci) ; but , the audacious ness of this disorderly horde,. who, invading every kind of business and commerce, engaged in forestalling' of every kind, bad rendered it impossible to maintain conveniently ancient insti tutioue, and the people were reduced to purchase at an exorbitant price, and by false weights, the objects of the first necessity. Now thanks to God, we have succeeded in chastising and destroying this horde of malefactors ; and henceforward, by the Divine as• sistance, every thing will be regulated according to divine and human laws. The orders of his Highness are, that we secure still more, day by day, the repose and tranquillity of the nations who live under the shadow of his imperial power. In consequence, the Porte is vigilant night and day to cause its administration, directed solely towards the tranquillity of the country and the safety of the people, to be conformable in every thing to the holy law, that no person, without grounds, may be exposed to suffer. It directs its care, towards providing the different articles of subsistence, ac cording to the Imperial will. It • has nominated among the capidji-bachi, a chief of police, charged according to ancient ordi nances with the duty of preventing forestalling, of repressing va grancy, of compelling the Rajahs to return within the limits of their condition. It is his duty, constantly, at the head of a guard, to traverse the streets and the markets, to watch over the prices and the weights of the articles which the people porches's. In m word, his superintendence will extend to objects of the first necessity. Ho will give the same directions to those who are un der his orders. " All the Mithoinetan people will acknowledge that the benefi cent views of the Sultan are constantly and solely directed to the glory of religion and the maintenance of the public peace; and that the re-establishment of the office of chief of police is, in itself, a great blessing. All Mussulmans, convinced of the truth of this maxim, that all the faithful are brothers will see in those of the same religion only brothers, will live united among themselves, will do good, will, avoid evil, will never fail, along with the coin nitnity of the faithful, in fulfilling she precept of the five prayers ; will never suffer among them, or in their quarters, had sub jects, disturbers of public order, or intriguers; will never or _ clipy themselves but with their own affairs; will abstain, above all from every bad action, and from every thing that dote not be come a Museulman ;.and will never intermeddle in any of the affairs of the Sublime Porte, which besides do not concern them ; in fine, they will never cease to offer up for his Highness those prayers which are a d'ivine obligation on every Musaulman. • You will cause this proclamation to be known to the inisa blunts o f t h e diff eren t qua rters, and to all whore it may' concern. Yatt will cause them to comprehend it, and explain it to the chiefs of the Corporations. " Constantinople, Sept. 29." ___—:—=---,---- I_, Ti.; Fa Mt.—MEET' NG OF S.

Yesterday the family of WiMara AlmanlE, residing at No. Wethroat, were thrown into the deepest anguith, in consequen of Mr. Alinanle having fallen by his own hand. Tuesday night he retired to his bed at the usual hour, apparently in good health, and yesterday n►orning, about 8 o'clock, the servant went up lo his chamber door to call hi►n, but receiving no answer, knockrd again, thinking that her master had fallen into a dote ( but recei ving no answer to the second knock, she mentioned it to Neater Almanli, and both he and his sister proceeded to the bed-chamber, when, shocking to relate, the children discovered their unhappy parent hanging by the ntekkerchief to the bed-post, and quite dead. Surgical ,aid was instantly sent for, but the vital spat k had fled. THE INQUERS . Yesterday evening, the Inquest on ilk. Alinatili was held, when the following witnesses were examined : Mr. G. W.

A medical gentleman, named Burt, said, that Ile attended the doomed lately, in consequence of a nervous attack ; upon which occasion the deceased g e intellects were alfeeted. The Jury returned a verdict of " Insanity." The deceased was forty-eight years of age, and bee left a wife and fantily. CIRCULATION of the BLOOD-POISONED WOUNDS. Much new light seems to have been recently thrown upon the subject of our title, by experiments moat ingenioosly contrived, and ably conducted, by D. Barry, M.D. surgeon to the limes, a s ,. His main conclusions are, that, during inspiration, the blood in the veins is moved inwards to the heart, and that thia move ment or circulation' is occasioned by the pressure of the at mosphere. It was found, on experiment, that any liquid, thrown into a vein, in the thorax, was propelled towards the heart during inspiration, and that the motion was arrested doting respiration. An inference from this was, that specific poisons—ouch as that of the viper, or that communicated by the bite of a mad dog, wee thrown into the system, through the open end of the veins, by at mospheric pressure; and that, if speedily applied, the poison might be extracted, by means of powerful cupping-glasses. Nu merous and decisive experiments were in consequence triads with respect to the poison of the viper. To some rabbits and other animals bitten by the viper, the cupping-glass was applied, while other bitten animals were left to nature ; and the result uniformly was, that in the one case all serious consequences were prevented, while, in the others, the disease and suffering that followed Wee extreme. Ay other numerous experiments, in which the most deadly poisons had been introduced nnder the skin of animals, it was ascertained that the cupping-glass arrested the prove', of what is called absorption. When a part has been bitten, or wounded by soy thing suspected of being poisoned, or in a state to communicate poisonous matter, the precautionary measures re commended, until the cupping-glass can be applied, are sitnple cleansing of the part by the application of cold water, without any friction that may render the skin more pervious or tender, the. het:Alga, not tee tight, betwixt the wctttnd and the heart, and protection of the part from contact with the air. In using the glass he is anxious to guard against scan- Eying beyond the parts which it is to cover; then after using the glass for perhaps an hour, but not till thin, if the ghee can be applied within any reasonable time, he recomMends sion, or the removal of the parts by the knife; then a reapplica tion of the cupping-glass; and lastly cauterisation or burning, that the air may be excluded by sealing herMetically. If this course be followed, then all will have been done that can be done ' to *met the progress of the poison in the first place, and to extract it in the second. The Editor of the Meilico-chiturgical Journal —a work of great merit, from which we have obtained our in formation—is inclined to think that poison may be thus extracted —that it generally will be--if the poison get into the system through the blood-vetoes and lymphatics only, and that the nerves have nothing to do with its progress, as it would appear they have not. At the same time, as different poisons may have, and doh's'', different modes of action, he puts his medical brethren on their guard against resting secure until they have tested the doctrine by ex perience respecting all sorts of poison. It may be here observed, however, that the absorption of the poison of small-pox, plague, he., by the lungs, forms no exception to his doctrine, but, on the contrary, is confirmatory of it, since the veins of the lungs are the most numerous, its communication with the central cavity of the thorax, the shortest and most direct—the coast of thee. veins tieing also the most previous, while their content, are pro pelled forward by the whole pressure of the air rushing down the trachea during inspiration. This strews, as Dr. Barry remarks, that whatever poison is capable of being suspended by, or dissolved in the air as a menstruum, must pass rapidly into the systems of those who inspire such infected air. This proviso also that there is contact with poison where it is not , suspected ; and as there is reason to apprehend that the human body, while labouring under many diseases, generates and exhales poisonous matter, we perceive here the importance of cleanliness, and the admission of free air to the chambers of the sick, both for curative purpose*, in preventing the accumulation of morbid effluvia, and for protect ing those attending or visiting them, from infection. These dis coveries of Dr. Barry, it is also curious to remark, are restoring a practice which prevailed in the time of Celeus, and among the an ciente in the form of sucking wounds ; hut which, from not having been shown to depend on scientific principles--as may be conjec- tured—was suffered to fall into disuse.—Scotsnian. PRoov or THE MARCH OD INTELLIWT.—The wife of a farmer, upon paying a visit to the governess of her daughters, was anxious to hear the report of their progess in music. The 'governess candidly in formed her that the instructions bestowed upon one of her pupils were entirely useless, and urged the good dame from a continuance in that branch of education, as her daughter had no capacity for it. This friendly advice, h o wever, failed in its intended effect, far the sagacious advocate for a good keddication bridling herself up, and placing her arms a-kimho, replied with great vehemence—" Od Zimmermains! madam, don't t e ll me about capacity, when I doesn't spare of the „ pen " !...... s od," continued she, with a consequential Vast-o ffi ce in this „d, 4, d es irq you will gii her one immediately !"

GRAND WRESTLING .14ATC1r - ,-• VICTORY DISPUTYD—CLaIkiII.I tilrt Devonport, Six o'clocE Itlonday evening. We lament to announce that a dispute has arisen, Polkinghorne end his umpires claiming the Championship, and Cenn and his empires and committee contending that the last fall, Avhich was so proclaimed, wee only a foil. We have no time to expt . eas one opinion, and as we have this moment teeeived an express *on't the scene of diversion, we give only the following : Round 1. At three quarters past twelve the men set to; hay. o,,,rdially shaken hands, each carefully eyed his man, witeX Cana grasped Polkinghorne with his right hand in his neck, ad fixeci his left tit his shoulder ; Polkinghorne having secured is hold, a great deal of exertion was used at the mode of proceeding ; in five minutes a close bad laid a foil on the ground. Round 2. This round was evidence of skill on the part dawn, and dechled advantage in strength in Polkinghorne, who with a desperate effort / contrived to throw Calm again. (cries, tf e. lal,. having as is supposed, unfairly handed his man.) Round 3. Each man bed now found out he had ads c h to do, and that caution must be the order of the day. Pot.milmrsta walked his adversary round the course some time, wle:n Conn seised him with an Herculean bold, locked his leg w:eriti Pol kinghorne's, turned his back upon him, and failed in al. his might to floor his weighty coutpeer. Cann came down, whirl), efter a . deal of dispute, was proclaimed a fall—(shouts of 'cr:daaz.e.) e e- Bets in favour of Polkinghorne.

It' the sixth. round, Cann having well punished by k.zitirr i , w!. cb Polking home not once attempted, he again locked bre *A as Lefore de- Fcribed, and threw Polkinghorne with a tremendous "urge, a hut* fall, subsequently disputed, and decided by the teas of a hal:ieuny, only a foil. Cann contended for its correctness,' but placing him self in the hands of the Committee.

Captain Farmer started at nine o'clock on Tuesday mavning, tai go on foot from Hyde-park-corner to the nth mile-stone, near Reading, Berke, and return (76 miles) in 19 hours. The match was made nearly a month ago, at a sporting-house at the Weet End of the Town, for 100 sovereigns. The betting was about to 4on time. The pedestrian reached Longford (16 mike) where he refreshed. He next reached Maidenhead (20 miles) and rest. eri ❑early an hour, and ate a mutton chop.

He readied Longford, and on arriving at Hounslow lie had nearly three hours left. He arrived at the Park gate in ten minutes under the given time, and won his match cleverly. A friend of the pedestrian accompanied the uns pure in the chaise with the necessary refreshments.

(FROM A Lormos ritaloptcAL.) shooting away from Passage, we soon enter the COI of Cork, the harbour of harbours, the pride of his Majesty's ports, and the glory of Old Ireland. During the war, when Ireland was at peace with itself, this harbour was the station for King's *hips, and the grand rendezvous for all Southern, West Indian, and A merieint convoys. Full mauy a morn has the sun shone upon the sails of eight hundred vi.esels, safe at anchor on its waters. At present there are, perhaps, three er four sulky ships riding far. apart, only waiting for a fair wind to rut and run. Then were there King's Ships, many in number, and great in the attractions of their guns and gold laced officers; then was the quay of the Core the seine of commercial bustle and naval gallantry ; then did Mrs. Broad way flourish in her marine hotel ; then did Mr. Fitzpatrick make block and cut sails to some purpose ; then did the Cork milliner* find cnnstant employment in the milers of the Cove Misses ; then did the parsons get work in tying fond couples together ; then did cigar smoke and rum grog abound ; then was pure brandy and run tea to be had cheap ; then were card parties, and deuces, and fat dinners, as common as fresh herrings in the Isle of Man. But now, Tantararanter, again every thing and every body is changed. We have degenerated from a great port to a summer bathing plate. Mr. Fitzpatrick stands at his shop door idle, with his hands in his breeches pockets, like a crocodile; and the portly Mrs. Bread way has gone to take her pleasure at Bath. We have one King's ship, to be sure, like the last rose of summer, inertly for the linnot r of the thing, as an Admiral is still stationed here, and a few grna. brigs and revenue cruisers pup in and out occasionally, re if to mock us for our sedatenme and stupidity. No more balk 04 board the 74—no inure naval fetes, blazing away for a dsy and night, and for a week after in the Provincial Journals. he com mand of this station has, until now, been much prised by tn. Ma jesty's Admirals. Independent of good living end cheap quertets, there were lots of windfalls certain to drop in the mane of the year.
